The overlay is a key component used when cursors can't be drawn directly through the game. This has has been updated to use the latest Win10 and 11 updates which should improve performance and reduce blackscreens.

Overlay VSync and FPS limiters have been added. Raise FPS limit to reduce overlay lag. Lower FPS limit to improve interop with Lossless Scaling.

Then some XBRZ upscaler improvements and other fixes.

UPDATES

• NEW: Rework overlay to use direct composition.
  
• NEW: Add XBRZ upscale to overlay cursors
  
• NEW: Scale down UI if cant fit screen
  
• NEW: VSync and FPS limit settings. Applies to the cursor overlay whenever its active.
  
• FIX: Fix some XBRZ upscaler issues
  
• FIX: Crash when setting static option on a hidden cursor bound to a 3D cursor
  
• FIX: Bound hidden cursor not showing in passive mode
  
• FIX: Imprecise positioning of hidden static cursor
  

TODO

• NEW: new super awesome scripted cursors
  
• NEW: pixel editor in basic and animated image editors
  
• NEW: more control over whats reset from settings reset button.

This one adds several workshop features including sorting, filtering, search, and ratings. Added default cursor options like resizing all unbound game cursors. Then the larger update, that will go unnoticed, was support for scripted cursors. So far only the existing Pyro, Prism, Petals were ported over so not much to see. But next update the full capabilities here are planned :)

Also snuck in an XBRZ upscaler for existing game cursors :D

Otherwise some QoL changes and various fixes. A few I couldn't get to in time however...

• Theres some issues while using Lossless Scaling thats more complicated than expected.
  
• Investigated HDR cursor brightness problem. Unfortunatelly this isnt an easy fix since its a Windows bug with no known workarounds. The only way around this in YoloMouse is to show the cursor via an overlay which can be done by enabling "settings > compliance > passive" but that has its own downsides.
  

UPDATES

• 1.12.2
  
  • NEW: use XBRZ scaling when upscaling original cursors
    
  • FIX: fix YM not working after some time when using default cursors. seen in wow and gw2.
• 1.12.1
  • FIX: stealth setting preventing YM from starting
• NEW: added size, effect, and mirror options to the original default cursor. this allows a quick global resize in a game.
  
• NEW: added order, filter, search, and voting/rating options to community browser
  
• NEW: voting/rating + cursor info in collection preview
  
• NEW: scripted cursors support. rewrote prism, pyro, and petals as scripted cursors.
  
• BUFF: sort bound app cursors higher in collection tab
  
• BUFF: show detailed error if YoloLauncher cant start YoloMouse
  
• BUFF: restore game window previously minimized by cursor picker menu.
  
• FIX: various issues with starting YM too early on windows startup by adding a 5 sec delay.
  
• FIX: screen sometimes flashing white when switching to an overlay cursor
  

TODO

• NEW: new super awesome scripted cursors

Added color and sizing options to effects. The collection tab now recalls your last configured app, instead of showing that intro message every time.

Then some fixes that may be significant for some folks. One involved the latest AMD driver update triggering HDR thinking YM is a game. Gamepass games should now work. And finally that stuck keys one which still persisted based on a few reports. It should now behave like it did before version 1.9. Why fix what worked ;)

UPDATES

• NEW: effect settings: added color+sizing for Scope and Halo.
  
• NEW: collection: recall last app configured.
  
• NEW: show warning when using Compliance Passive mode.
  
• BUFF: improve tutorial to avoid confusion.
  
• BUFF: support XBox GamePass games by allowing UWP apps to be targeted
  
• FIX: crash when deleting cursors with windows app selected.
  
• FIX: stuck keys again: revert to when it used to work.
  
• FIX: strange HDR-like brightness when using overlay cursors with latest AMD GPU drivers.
  
• FIX: cursor binding sometimes failing with multiwindow games like GW2.
  

TODO

• NEW: global resize option: will be size by % option under default cursor
  
• NEW: pixel editor to basic and animated image editors
  
• FIX: hidden+static option sometimes not working in GW2
  
• FIX: reported perf issue with having many bindings on many apps.
  
• FIX: oversaturation of some cursors in HDR
  
• FIX: hotkeys not working when invoked by apps like director
  
• FIX: size consistency while cycling cursors using hotkeys
